In this age of 舖flexible舗 labour practices, where non-discrimination laws have become the major bulwark protecting individual employees, the ban on age discrimination is assuming greater prominence and complexity. Unlike other targets of non-discrimination law, age arguably remains a defensible social stratifier, and various institutional and structural determinants are of the utmost importance in understanding and assessing labour marketrelated age differences.
